All about me

Welcome everyone! So happy to see you guys come to visit my blog here. I'm audrey, from Shanghai, China. I came to New Zealand alone and have been living here for 3 years. Fortunately, I became a New Zealand permanent resident two months ago. Before that, I was an international student just like most of you. Now I am 21 years old. Currently, I rent a flat at St Johns with my boyfriend, a silly dog Vela and an arrogant cat called Koda.

I still remember the first time I put my feet on this enchanting land. I was so curious and excited. Wearing a knitted scarf and cotton-padded jacket, dragging with a huge baggage, standing at Auckland airport. It seemed pretty funny and weird because people were all wearing shorts and T-shirts at that time. After I took off my clothes, changed time on my watch and had dinner under the sunshine. I knew my life has changed and I would face on many new challenges in the future. I felt excited as well as worried.

Time goes by so fast. Last year, I got my bachelor degree in graphic design from AUT University. And now I have a part time job in Wendy's ice cream store and also learning English in Unitec at the same time. My first language is Chinese and I have been learning English for 10 years, however it was quite informal and disorganised. I know that for living in an English speaking country, learning and improving language always important to me, that’s why I’m here having English course after I have got my bachelor degree. I love to communicating with people and sharing their experiences. It’s good for my speaking and listening skills. But vocabulary and grammar are my weak aspects, I should spend more time on improving them.

Anyway, I am so pleased with my life right now. Taking care of my pets, enjoying movie and music. Spending some time on drawing and graphic design. My aim is to finish this course successfully and then get a design job in a local company.
